Sorry MSNBC

but the minute you play a clip of Mitch McConnell saying ANYTHING -- even if you're just playing it so you can cut him to shreds -- that's when I turn off the TV.

Nobody gives me the willies, the creeps, the heebie jeebies like that specimen.

Oppo research isn't for the fainthearted. I can't imagine having to immerse myself daily in the cesspool of the Republican agenda. But we have to hang in there. As odious as are McConnell and his ilk, until their lies are exposed, they can't be extinguished.

I watch them in the evening,ED, Rachel etc. I turn them on at 5 my time and put it on pause for about an hour and a half, then go ahead and watch this way I can just fast forward past any of that offensive crap.. I never watch the idiot rethugs and do not like that Ed or any of the MSNBC group put them on for any reason.

it's beyond me as well. He does nothing for this state, only appears at private functions (not that I could stomach seeing him), and is a general ass...

We'll try again to get him out but in my opinion, the strongest candidate to run against him is the current Lt. Gov. and he just said he wasn't interested in a legislative job..meaning he'll be running for governor. Don't know who else...other than Ashley Judd...has enough name recognition in the state to run against this creep.

I'd move to Kentucky to vote for her! I know nothing about her politically, or intellectually, but if she has a chance to get this rotter out of office, I'd do it!
